Easy Avocado Dips

I made these 2 easy avocado dips for my event a few weeks back and they went down a storm! So I'm sharing the recipes with you all to try out. And avocado is all the rage these days. These dips are perfect to serve with crackers and veggie sticks as a snack and they go brilliantly on chilli, tortilla chips, salad...the list goes on!

Avocado Salsa

Ingredients:

1 avocado

2 tomatoes, diced and seeds removed

1 handful of coriander, finely chopped

Juice of 1 lime

1-2 tbsp olive oil

Method:

First up, how to deal with an avocado.
Slice the avocado down the centre, lengthways and around the stone.
Hold either half and twist until they separate.
To remove the stone, drive the blade of the knife into it- carefully! Twist the knife and the stone should come out easily.

Next make cuts in the flesh, first down and then across, to create small diced pieces. Scoop out the pieces with a spoon.
Add these to a bowl with the diced tomato and coriander.
Add the juice, oil and seasoning and mix well.
Keep well covered and in the fridge- best eaten ASAP.

Creamy avocado dip

Ingredients:

2 avocados

1-2 heaped tbsp. natural yogurt

1 large handful coriander

Juice of a lime

Method:

Add all the ingredients to the bowl of a food processor with salt and pepper and blitz until smooth.
If you don't have a food processor, use a stick blender instead. Remember to chop the coriander if doing this.
Garnish with more coriander and serve.
